This game weirds me the fuck out.

I can't decide whether it is a horrible, janky bad game or whether it's actually decent enough and I'm having genuine fun with it.

So weird.

 

[CadaveriaIX]

Feel free to add me. Sham Wow

You're probably right. At least he uses his powers to do more then charge playing cards and chuck em around. Chunks of earth work better anyway

I think 1 or 2 people here, have it unlocked already as well. So def doable in a week or so

Sitting at work on gaf talking bout skyforge n marvel haha.

 

[Cracklox]

Ahem,

Slight thread derailment aside, I'm gunna put this out there and say we need more commanders. 6 clans and 3 commanders at the moment.

Also it seems that for a clan to be at full capacity, it needs to have a commander. Right now clan capacity is 5 but if I try to add to one of the clans with 4 people and no commander if just does a random swap and there is no way for me to get 5 people into that clan.

So essentially a clan of 5 has 4 clan members and a commander. Cant just have 5 clan members

Why do I bring this up now? Because I have a bit of queue I'm waiting in for Kyris

Also currently we have 26 members across 6 clans of 5. Simple math indicates we still have 4 spots. As everyone knows, simple mathes doesn't work. Keeping in mind the above, 3 of our clans do not have a commander so they're 'full' until we do (or increase clan size, not that far off). So that leaves 3 clans of 5 and 3 of 4. I'm shit at mathes but I think that works out be somewhere between 26 and 28. Given we have 26 at the moment, right now, we have room for 1 more

TLDR; read it! I did mathes for you!

 

[piratepwnsninja]

I'm invested enough that I'm comfortable saying I could be a commander.

 

[TharpDaddy]

I'm invested enough that I'm comfortable saying I could be a commander.

I'm in the same boat if volunteers are needed. This game owns me atm.

 

[Cracklox]

Thanks guys.

Clearos has the final say but just wanted to bring it up. Obviously capacity will be increased in the next few days, but adding a commander or 2 will free up a spots immediately. Could be fairly important given 1 or 2 invites are having issues at the moment. Also, 3 outta 6. We really need 1 or 2 more anyway

Clearos you may want to double check what I said above. See if you can have more then 4 'regular' clan members in 1 group. It wouldn't work for the life of me, and thats all I could come up with

I just created the guild, you have just as much power as me so if we need more commanders let's do it. I just want to keep the stance of an odd number so we can always eclipse the 50% on a vote as it won't progress until it hits 51 and we don't want a stale mate if vacation or other factors get in the way.

Pulling this out of my ass ( I might want to stand up ) I think it blocks you from giving me a 5th player because it doesn't want to block my invite priviliages. I have gone to 5 members in my clan before when I invited people into the guild. Never got to 5 by just moving members around.

I just purchased the Collectors Edition and none of my goodies are showing up in game.

Is there a waiting period or something? A code I need?

 

[Listonosh]

Added my name to the doc =) Not a super hardcore player but I try to get on at least a little everyday.

 

[texhnolyze]

Just reached 2k prestige earlier.
Had a little problem with this boss, it turned out that I had to destroy the eggs before they hatch. This game has some interesting and fun boss mechanics, not our usual tank and spank mmorpg.

The boss part is huge. Not sure why it was only wow that could make interesting boss mechanics. Glad this game is following suit.

There shouldn't be for the items being there. There should be a chest in your inventory that contains most of the items, and you do have to get to a certain (very early on) point to open it, though.

Sounds good. Let me conduct some more mathematics. We have 3. We want odd numbers. I've suggested another 1 or 2. We have 2 volunteers above.......

Regarding the 2nd point, I believe you misunderstand a little. I just retested. Leaving your clan out of the equation completely I cannot move any members into clans 4, 5 or 6, even from my own clan. They all only have 4 members so I should right? Thats why I think a clan has to have a commander to to be at its maximum number. Clans 1 and 3 both have 5 (each with a commander) . Mine has 4 only because of invites. Again, thats why I'm saying we really only have 1 spot at the moment

I hope that makes a bit more sense. Either way, when your on next, in the current state, try moving someone to clans 4,5 or 6

No and no. I think 1 of the guys earlier in the thread had an issue were it got registered to the wrong account name. A name that was real close or something. Maybe double check that, make sure you've got all the latest patches etc, and if not contact their support. Not great......

Added my name to the doc =) Not a super hardcore player but I try to get on at least a little everyday.

Haha. Welcome. Ignore the above 'politics'. I'll send you an invite in a moment. I think though we're at our last spot at least until tomorrow so grab it quick if you can (see above )

 

[Clearos]

Understood, reread a second time and it makes sense.

 

[Skulldead]

We can miss our build with no reset option ? I'm sure they will find a way to balance the prestige system...

 

[Croatoan]

I am at prestige 2k so I am past early on lol. No chest in my inventory, no premium either.

I bought it on their website while logged into my account. It says acquired now when I select the collectors addition web page.

 

[Cracklox]

Understood, reread a second time and it makes sense.

Ha cool. I was probably rambling a bit. I may be wrong. Could be a bug. I'll dare venture to there forums and see what I can find actually.

So, all that said shall I begin a vote for piratepwnsninja and Tharpdaddy to begin their 2nd jobs?

I gather you've re-logged etc? Failing that i'd definitely contact their support. Somethings for sure gone wrong. You would think they would work that sort of thing out pretty quickly too

Ill do it

Hmmm just pops up on the left of screen. F1 to accept. I'll send another in amoment

edit - I was just declined twice. PM'd you in game (pink msg) Let me know when you're good

Indeed, I won't be home for another 6 hours but I'll vote at that time.

Done. After much fucking around. Seriously, I wont go into details but the amount of shuffling required..........

Gents, Clearos will send you the details for the physical and mental aptitude test along with a job description, which will outline your day to day duties.

Oh, and pants = optional

edit - bit late Queen - we had 2 takers already. We'll prob need more again soon though

Goddam this thread looks blue. Usually greyer

Is there a manual I can study before the test? I just renewed my license with a perfect score, so I may have blown my testing skills for the decade on that.

Also, I move to make Thursdays "Banana Hammock Thursdays", if that's amenable.

[TharpDaddy]

I'm not sure what the mission was named, but the big cube boss is the most fun encounter I've experienced in this game so far, it required a ton of teamwork to pull off.

We shall move to make a notion for this. Alongside Jacuzzi fridays Skygaf shall be a paradise!

It was fun making health bars disappear in a 5k dungeon too

But good to know I can party with people that far under me. Might be one or 2 others around that range too.

And yeah pretty late where I am. Downtimes for an hour or so, and I'm pretty knackered so ima call it I think. Def do it again tomorrow....

double edit actually nvm. We may still have spots after the reshuffle and vote that is in effect. Cant check. But when Clearos gets on and and approves the vote we're good either way

 

[Ploid 3.0]

You're probably right. At least he uses his powers to do more then charge playing cards and chuck em around. Chunks of earth work better anyway

I think 1 or 2 people here, have it unlocked already as well. So def doable in a week or so

I've been playing the Kinetic this reset week, it's a monster. The lightning bolt chain ability wipes trash like no other, and the stacks of damage bonus to earth (rocks resistance down) allow the stone throws to take out huge chunks of health. There's so many debuffs + buffs in Kinetic's kit too. The downside is the whole setup process can make certain fights hard to solo (hologram dragon fly robot boss for example ).

 

[Clearos]

Not sure if we have enough petty cash in the budget for a jacuzzi.I wasted most of it on last week's Stir-Friday.

Let's discuss at the next board meeting. We might need to shift our focus and reduce overhead to make some of these changes.

 

[docbon]

Just reached 2k prestige earlier.
Had a little problem with this boss, it turned out that I had to destroy the eggs before they hatch. This game has some interesting and fun boss mechanics, not our usual tank and spank mmorpg.

One thing I like about this game so far is the ratio of time spent killing trash to time spent killing bosses. Reminds me a wee bit of The Secret World, which also had really fun dungeons.

That being said, I've blown through pretty much every encounter so far. I'm hoping it gets a bit more challenging soon.

edit: Also hoping I can actually log into the server ._.

 

[Clearos]

Snuck online to vote and we are all set on commanders.


I'm going to be making an OT down the road but a heads up. If you want a solid 5-10 min stratagy game I highly recommend snagged a code of Duelyst. There are currently 18k keys left.

One of my friends made this game and it is really addicting.....but won't take away from your skyforging.

It definitely gets more challenging. Since 4k prestige I've noticed I need a lot more teamwork to get through missions.

added my name. i have no idea what i'm doing! my level is 1959?

 

[Queen of Hunting]

To combat this, over the next few days we’ll be implementing several large upgrades to our servers in order to alleviate these connectivity issues. The first step was to complete a maintenance today, already completed, with a server-side patch to reduce some of the load off of some of the databases. We are also working on setting up additional server hardware over the next few days.

Until these upgrades are complete, players may experience occasional queues while attempting to sign into Skyforge. After these issues have been resolved, we’ll be awarding everyone with a special in-game gift to thank players for their ongoing patience and understanding as the team weathers these growing pains.

they really are too kind

 

[texhnolyze]

Server upgrade? About time!
And it comes with a gift as well, woohoo!

 

[JambiBum]

Are the server problems what cause issues when it comes to selecting things/receiving quest items and updates? Honestly that's my only issue so far with the game. The menus/quest related stuff isn't responsive enough for me and it feels like I have to click things multiple times for it to work properly.

Yeah I've only been getting these as of late. When I started it was working fine.

Yeah that's from the lag. Combat tends to be fine but the item servers (I believed they call it) are lagging badly so looting, quests, etc. will all have massive delay and lag.

 

[Marshmellow]

Thanks guys.

Could be fairly important given 1 or 2 invites are having issues at the moment. Also, 3 outta 6. We really need 1 or 2 more anyway

Clearos you may want to double check what I said above. See if you can have more then 4 'regular' clan members in 1 group. It wouldn't work for the life of me, and thats all I could come up with

I'll just put it out there, I know it has been answered already but once you are comfortable bringing in non-gaf I would be happy to take up a commander slot. Got about 6 pretty active people in my casual pantheon at the moment but we are not really putting any money into it as I am thinking it will just dissolve in the future and I'll be joining with GAF.
Basically what I'm saying is once I'm in I am happy to pour credits into the GAF stash... Lol

Makes sense. I was hoping it was something like that instead of a real issue. I keep getting kicked from the servers now though so I'm gonna try to play it later.
